Land, Water, and Air

Learn to Choose Forest-Friendly Foods

Our food choices can help protect forests and wildlife. I will spend 90 minutes learning how to choose foods that are grown in ways that protect forests, such as avoiding products linked to deforestation and seeking certified sustainable options like shade-grown coffee or palm oil-free products.

Exercise Daily

DAILY ACTIONS

Wildlife

Use Reusable Bags

Plastic bags do not always end up in landfills and if they aren't properly disposed of. In nature, they can be mistaken for food by many wild animals and harm wildlife. When I go shopping, I will be sure to bring my own bags to reduce waste and the chance that plastic bags could find their way into wildlife habitats.

Spring has been cold here. Not a lot is sprouting. I found trout lily coming up in the forest and yarrow on the edge of the path. I logged them in iNaturalist.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Land, Water, and Air

What did you learn about forest-friendly foods? What sustainable food choices will you commit to making, and why are they important to you?
Heather Moon 4/01/2025 8:13 AM
I learned about noxious weeds that grow in the forest that make good food, like garlic mustard! With this administration threatening the existence of our forests, I feel it is vital for each of us to do what we can to protect them.
